2.5/4  "Hefty charmer."
-- Lou Lumenick, NEW YORK POST

1.5/4  "Starts out with tremendous promise, introducing an intriguing and alluring premise, only to fall prey to a boatload of screenwriting cliches that sink it faster than a leaky freighter."
-- John Petrakis, CHICAGO TRIBUNE

  "The screenplay, co-written by director Imogen Kimmel, lacks the wit necessary to fully exploit the comic elements of the premise, making the proceedings more bizarre than actually amusing."
-- Frank Scheck, HOLLYWOOD REPORTER

2/5  "The story is -- forgive me -- a little thin, and the filmmaking clumsy and rushed."
-- A.O. Scott, NEW YORK TIMES
